Recipes – Minecraft Forge 1.16.4 Modding Tutorial

Hey what’s going on guys turkeyworty here and welcome back to another minecraft modding tutorial for version 1.16 in this tutorial i’m going to be covering recipes so i’ll be doing crafting recipes melting recipes blast furnace recipes camp buyer recipes smoker recipes grindstone recipes and smithing table recipes i’ll be covering

Things like uh brewing stand recipes in a future video since that is slightly more complicated it’s not quite as simple as these so in our organization video we already created the data tutorial where we then created a recipes package so it’s pretty simple all our recipes will just go in here

Now you can just create a new file in here and this file will need to be the name of your recipe so this must be lowercase it cannot have spaces and it cannot have any special symbols so you can name this whatever you like but normally we put a name that makes sense

Obviously so the recipe i’m going to be making is i want to be able to craft my example item to my example block and the way i’m going to do that is well i’m going to call it um example underscore item and score two underscore block dot json And that will be what i call it so there is a really handy website for this and that is this website here crafting crafting dot the destruction i presume that’s meant to be ca it will be linked in the description and this is really useful so you can just go ahead and

Drag the items in now you will notice that these are only vanilla items in here and this is 1.16 obviously if you were using a different version you can switch it here but it only has a select set so 1.16 is what i’m using and if i just press this add item button

We can set the name of the item so i’m going to add my example item and then we need the namespace item so that will just be our mod id which i believe we put as tutorial and then it is example underscore item and if you want you can just go ahead

And select the texture for this as well which just for the sake of this one i will do just to show you um how that works and what it will look like but you don’t need to add a texture that’s just for your um it’s your own choice

So you can just click add and if you see that our example item has been added and i can just say um example item example item and just drag them in like this now i’m actually going to make it four by four so it will fit anywhere um

Yeah that’s pretty much it um you do need to drag in the output of course so i’m going to add a blue bar a block here so i’ll call this example block and this will be tutorial example underscore block and you can select the texture if you

Want of course but if you don’t it just comes up as a missing texture and just put that in the output now obviously you can change the count i think you yeah you do that by right clicking it and you can say set count so say i wanted it to be

A count of four you can it will change to a count of four um and you can also edit the data of it so um i believe this is only for bedrock edition let’s see yeah it’s probably only for bedrock edition but i’m not sure

Um and you can also right click these so say i right click that and i say create tag and that’s how we can use tags for this so let’s just add that back this recipe doesn’t really make any sense but we’re not going to worry about that too much

And then you can just copy this and paste it into here And that’s it that is your recipe now let’s say i want a smelting recipe so i’m going to create a new um a new file and i’m going to call this example underscore or um to underscore um item Or no i’m going to use a vanilla recipe for this or vanilla items so i’m going to say that if we smelt um planks we get um cherries okay Thanks to cherry.json and just press finish now if we come back over to here we can go to the smelting tab and obviously there’s all these other ones if you want to add those i’m going to remove this output so i’m gonna say that if you you should be able to

Like right click this um but i’ll just put uh planks in here and just say create tag if we select this tag we can see the name of the tag so this will just be blanks and that’s a minecraft tag you can also use forge tags yeah tag minecraft planks and you don’t

Need to worry about adding items unless you’re creating your own tag because what you can do is you can actually download the tag separately um i’m not going to do that and then obviously i don’t know if it like takes in a fuel no i don’t know why that slots actually there

That’s a little weird um and then you can just say it goes to cherry so let’s create our cherry and we can call this tutorial colon we called it um example underscore food and obviously select the texture if you want i’m going to do that just because

It’s it’s available and you can say it smells to a cherry once again you can uh you should be able to edit this and give it a count um but it’s not really letting me do that for some reason i’m pretty sure you can oh no maybe you

Can’t maybe you can’t i don’t think you can smell and get multiple results which is a little bit of a shame but that’s where you would need your own furnace and then there’s a few options that it gives you here so it gives you the experience so i could say 0.5

It gives you the time that it takes to smelt it i didn’t know that actually exists so obviously by default that’s 10 seconds i’m actually going to set that to 20 ticks so one second and that’s pretty much the options you have and then you can just copy this

Go back into eclipse paste it in and save it and if you want obviously as i said you can do this multiple times multiple different recipes different types and all that different stuff um that’s pretty much it to be honest so we’ve covered how you can use a well

This should be a tag for some reason it didn’t export as a tag but for tags you need to specify that it’s a tag instead of what we have here which is an item so you can do that for both i don’t know why it didn’t export that you might

Have to check and it’s it’s minecraft planks not oak planks i don’t know how why that messed up let me see um yeah this is this is tag plank so i don’t know why that’s not working that might be a little bug um or maybe i have to say create tag and that

Adds it ah yeah there you go so you have to say create tag um and that will that will work so yeah that’s pretty much it obviously i’m going to link that in the description if we now go ahead and run the game we should be able to craft

Our example items into our example block and we should be able to smelt uh minecraft planks into cherries so let’s go ahead and test this out okay so guys as you can see i’m now in the game and if we go ahead into our inventory i do have to be in

Survival of course though and i go to craft our example items we should see that we get four of our example block and we can obviously do this in a crafting table as well um anywhere in the crafting table it doesn’t really matter so that is that recipe and if you’re

Going into a furnace plop some coal in there we should be able to smelt a plank with a very fast time and obviously since we use the tag we can smelt either of the planks so um or any plank i suppose as you you can see that’s working with

Oak and if we put in birch it still works so yeah that’s that’s pretty simple stuff obviously we’re getting the cherries and we got the experience so quite a bit of experience because we set it to 0.5 so yeah that’s pretty much it for recipes um i hope you guys did enjoy this
